The look and feel of your blog is easy to setup and switch with WordPress. There are thousands of design themes available both free and paid.
These are some things to consider when choosing your blog theme design:
- Number and order of columns
- Colour scheme
- Fonts
- Header options
Free vs. paid blog themes
Free themes are great and are the best place to start for a new blogger. Check out the most downloadable free WordPress themes.
When you need to get your blog on another level it is best to go for a premium theme. Premium themes are constantly developed and have the full support. When there is a WordPress upgrade the theme is compatible and is functioning correctly. Same is not always the case with the free themes.
Another important factor is flexibility. Premium themes are very customisable. They allow you to change columns, sidebars, fonts, colours, header and many other design elements without needing to know CSS or coding. With a premium theme you have the full control of the look of your blog.
I use premium Thesis Theme
I personally use a premium theme called Thesis for this blog and most of my other projects. Thesis Theme is very user friendly. It makes it easy for anyone to customise a blog.
It gives my blog a professional look, a clean and easy-to-read layout and it is optimised for search engines. Here is my quick video on how Thesis works:
Thesis Theme costs $87 and you get free upgrades for life with your purchase. It is worth the money as you get a professional looking blog for a fraction of the cost of getting a custom made design.
